Long-distance removals from London, done in one trip
Leaving London for another part of the country does not mean handing your belongings to a shared-load haulier and waiting days for them to turn up. Our long-distance service moves you in a single dedicated van, with the same two-person crew loading in London and unloading at the other end, so nothing is transferred between depots and nothing goes missing on the way. From our Uxbridge base on the M25/M40 corner we are well placed for the motorway network north, west and south.
We move households, single items and part-loads to cities and towns across England, Wales and Scotland. Most long-distance moves are a full-day job: we plan an early start to make the most of the motorways, blanket-wrap and secure everything for the longer journey, and keep you updated on progress and arrival time. For bigger homes going a long way we can split the job over two days rather than rushing it.
Ask us for the current insurance certificate, cover limits and exclusions that apply to your job before you book.
Pricing: long-distance moves are quoted as a day rate built from our standard man and van rate — from around £520 for a single-driver day (roughly eight hours at our £65/hr rate), or from around £760 with two movers (our £95/hr rate), plus mileage. We fix the exact all-in price up front once we know the route, the load and whether it is a one or two-day job.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a long-distance move from London cost?
Long-distance moves are priced as a day rate from our standard man and van rate — from around £520 for a single-driver day or £760 with two movers, plus mileage. We give you one fixed all-in price before we set off, based on the route, the load and whether it is a one or two-day job.
Is it a dedicated van or a shared load?
Dedicated. Your belongings travel in one van with the same crew from start to finish — nothing is transferred between depots or shared with other people's loads, so nothing gets mixed up or delayed.
Which cities do you cover?
We cover the whole UK mainland. Our most-requested routes are London to Birmingham, Manchester and Leeds, and we regularly move to Liverpool, Bristol, Nottingham, Sheffield, Brighton, Edinburgh and many more. Tell us your destination and we will confirm and quote.
Can you move a long distance on the same day?
For most routes, yes — we load in London and unload the same day. For larger homes going a long way, we may plan the move over two days so it is not rushed. We agree the timing when you book.
Is my move insured over a long distance?
Ask us for the current insurance certificate, cover limits and exclusions that apply to your job before you book.
